The outside space here is great, very open and spacious patio. Lots of decorations, including pirates hanging from the rigging, etc. Food here is fine, average prices. The place apparently gets busy later with lots of young drinkers, but early evening in the summer it's fantastic.

Great place to hang out and drink with a group of friends. Food is OK nothing special. A little expensive for what you get.

We have dined inside @ the Mountain springs several times in the past year. The food and service have been good, and they have good specials throughout the week. We wanted to try the outdoor area which is shipwreck beachy decor, tropical whimsy and fun casual. The menu is good, ranging from typical bar food to specials (our special was... More

Loved the outside atmosphere. It has such a vacation feel to it. It's a nice escape for a few hours, then back to reality. The service was great. The food was pretty good.

Food was excellent!! Staff was excellent!! It was a little loud with the amount of people talking and motorcycles revving their engines outside and I am a motorcycle person just don't like revving engines when we are trying to have a nice meal with family
